New details revealed in alleged sibling shooting

New details are being revealed about the shooting that left a Louisville woman clinging to life and her brother behind bars.

The woman, Jericka Snead, arrived at the hospital with life-threatening injuries and still remains in critical condition.

According to police, it was the suspect in the case, Jules Snead, who brought her to get medical help.

Investigators say the shooting occurred Monday morning at the suspect's home on Trotter Trace.

According to the police report, an altercation occurred between the two siblings and Jules shot Jericka in the upper legs.

Police say he brought her to Suburban Hospital, but her injuries were so serious she was transferred immediately to University Hospital.

Neighbors say Trotter Trace is typically a quiet, peaceful area.They're not surprised that particular home was involved, because there was a shooting there a few years ago. However, they say seeing their street become a crime scene was still unsettling.

Jules Snead is charged with first-degree assault.

However, his charges could be upgraded if his sister dies.
